Feeders to Pellets?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
All mine eat pellets, more like addicted to them. But will only eat a certain kind...Hikari massivore Delight. Try giving them a shot. Also, while pellet training, don't feed them any other foods, stick to pellets for 2weeks, and should start eating. Don't worry, they can go long w/o eating!
 
My dats are very small. the biggest is about 8 cm. Anybody knows how long I can starve them? I'm really afraid they are going to die since they are small.
 
My dats only used to eat live or frozen. But now all on pellets. I just starved them for a week, then started feeding pellets. They didn't hav much interest in them at first, so I started dropping them in front of my sump return line, sending the pellets flying thru that tank. The movement got there attention, and started hitting them. Now they will hit them as soon as pellets it the surface. Oh, tho will only eat HIKARI MASSIVORE DELIGHT..wont touch any pellets but those
 
Also, if your dats are really small still, keep them on frozen/live food for now. I wouldnt starve them if small juviniles. Can always switch to pellets when their mouths big enough.
 
I must of lucked out my dat I got took pellets from day one. I started with floating pellets and then moved to sinkin but he will take any kind of food I put in for him.
